You are as bad as the other dickhead on here.

I've been called lots of things, but I don't think I've ever been called that.

Just don't call me Tony, as my Mother would never allow it, so I'm not trained to respond to that moniker.   

I think that many people are not willing to accept the reality that the lockdowns and diapers were not effective.  To do so would be to admit that they were wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong

All true, just like with climate change where NONE of their predictions come true. None!

The Republicans (UNIPARTY) are, for the most part Democrats with a different name.  They are now the enemy as are the Democrats.  Both are ruining this territory.  It won't change until we have a Depression or worse, then people will be negatively affected enough to wake up, I am sick of this shit.  They are ALL THE SAME except for the very few.

As I said before, I think the Rivian is interesting looking and different. That doesn't mean it will be successful. I'd never pay that kind of money for one, but due to the high, two income households filled with those that embrace the current Neo-Fascism, you see them here, relatively often.  Teslas are everywhere.

You are really stretching it.  Of course electric bills count as maintenance.  See what happens to your reliability if you don't pay.
One way you pay someone else a fairly predictable amount every month to do the maintenance.
The other way you pay someone else to do the maintenance whenever there is a problem.

Sure.  If you don't count the expenses of grid-connected power, then grid connected power is cheaper.
SMH.

OK.

But, that repair and maintenance is captured in your monthly bill. You must compare that to the total cost of owning and operatoring your own Solar power system plus its R&M and monthly reserve to replace the panels.

Also the vast majority of people also need Street Power from the utility because the solar can't generate enough to meet demand. So add that cost as well.

What amazes me is how stupid people and other types of liberals fall for this shit time and time again.

The left must have some kind of patent on ignorant and pathetic.

Well, we saw how they fell for the Covid scam, and the man-made climate change hoax.  So, doesn't surprise me. 

EV's are still largely a virtue signaling tool for the affluent.  The working poor certainly can't afford them, and the vast majority have no place to charge them overnight. The Middle-Income Earner does not have the discretionary income to afford a spare ICE vehicle for longer trips or towing and the wife needs her ICE vehicle to go to WORK.  Many people across the income spectrum live in townhouses, rowhomes or apartments and also don't have any place to charge overnight.

We neither have the generation capacity nor grid to support widespread use of EV's.  I don't see them flying off dealers' lots, except in very, very affluent areas like mine where Model 3's are relatively common, but the other one or two cars in the driveway is an ICE BMW, Benz or Lexus, Land Rover, or other SUV.

So, what are manufactures whom have gone in with Governments worldwide and converting largely to EVs going to do with all of them?  Will Government have to do a back door ban and make mileage requirements so onerous nobody can reach them with ICE or even a Hybrid?  Will governments just ban ICE vehicles or severely limit how much or where they can be driven???
